Athletics Kenya Youth Development chairman Barnaba Korir says they are now focusing on the 2024 Paris olympics after an indifferent World Under 20 Championships in Cali, Colombia. Speaking upon return, Korir said they identified some areas on which they need to work as they plan for the Paris Games. “We are not wasting any time as we shift our focus to the 2024 Paris Olympics. They are a young team and still a work in progress,” he said, adding that it takes time to train an athlete. Meanwhile, after encountering numerous documentation bottlenecks in the lead-up to Cali, Korir has urged young athletes to ensure they register for their identification cards in good time to avoid last minute rush.
